misheard lyrics

I'm not sure of the song's title, but my little brother mistook the lyrics: "fifty seven channels and nothing on", for "fifty seven towns and a dozen farms"

Huey Lewis's "Hip to be square" - in 3rd grade I could have SWORN it was "hit the beef square". ????

I used to think that a song 'Venus' by Frankie Avalon said....

"Hey Penis, Oh, Penis
Penis if you will..."

When the song “She's Always a Woman To Me” first came out, I thought the lyrics were “She's a Weasel Woman to Me.” To this day, the image I see when I hear that song is of a weasel being serenaded.

When I was little, I thought the song that goes "Goin' to the chapel and we're gonna get married" went "Goin' to the Jack-o-lantern, gonna get married"... Who knows, maybe some people want to get married on Halloween?

I used to love the song "Hitchin a ride" but I always sang it "ride ride ride, hey Generide" where Generide was a girls name, and they were just saying hey to her

That Madonna sang "I'm a cheerio girl" instead of material girl

I was puzzled by the "sealing wax" that Jackie Paper brought Puff the Magic Dragon. I thought it was "ceiling wax" - wax that collected on the ceiling, a bit like earwax.

I used to believe that 'One more time' by Britney Spears used to be:
'Oh Baven Baven' instead of 'oh baby baby'. My dad said 'It isn't Baven. What's Baven?' I replied with 'Duh! Baven is a Scottish name!' Silly me!

Never_Forget

I can't remember the name of the song or the artist, though I know it was a woman
However the chorus had the words 'The Girl can't help it'
I was sure she was singing 'The Brylcreme muppet'

up until recently, I thought the Housmartin's version of the song "He ain't heavy" went like this:
"So on we go - to where there is mountain sun" instead of "his welfare is of my concern".

Romantic, really, having to drag that big fella through the mountains...

When I was about 7, I always thought that instead of ''who you gonna call... Ghost Busters!'' was sung ''who ya gonna haul... roast pop-tarts!''

my friend thought that the line in the song "pilot of the airways here is my request was in actual fact Running up the stairway here is my request"

In the film grease the song "one that i want" we use to think that the line "Nothing left nothing left for me to do" was "double it up double it up for me and you"

Also our dad thought that the song "the final countdown" by Europe was "there's a fire downtown"

Remember that techno song "I'm blue da boo de da boo day deh" well, I heard "I'm blue, I believe I will die"
And one of my friends thought it was "I'm nude, I'm in need of a guy" yea. personally, I like our lyrics better.

CANT BELIEVE THAT I'M A FOOL AGAIN I THOUGHT THIS LOVE WOULD NEVER END HOW WAS I TO KNOW YOU NEVER TOLD ME.
BABY YOU SURE LOOK GORMY

JOHN MARSHALL

My belief for a long time was that the line in the KISS song went "III want to rock and roll all night, in the everglades". Made sooo much sense! They wore 7 inch heels.It was to treadge through the swamp i guess.
The rest of the line:"and party everyday".
